Tips to get the optimal vacation property experience:

Sticking to a spending budget:

• Summer is high season in the Carolina Beach area. Booking your vacation rental in the Fall or Spring is a good way to save on your rental home. Rental rates are lower, and you'll find a larger selection of desirable properties.
• The sooner your group can book a vacation home, the better your selection will be. The best vacation rentals are reserved early. Booking your rental home six - twelve months before your vacation dates is recommended. Christmas, Thanksgiving and New Years Eve are excellent times to search for and book your rental property.
• Active Duty and veterans of the US Armed forces may be qualified for special discounts. Be sure to ask your prospective property owner if your vacationing group qualifies for a special promotion or discount.
• Booking websites frequently offer their guests an option to buy vacation insurance protection. Trip insurance, which usually costs between 1% - 5% of the base reservation price, offers visitors reimbursement of costs for missed vacation time as a result of personal medical-related emergencies or weather disasters, as well as ensuing additional hurricane evacuation costs, such as an unexpected hotel overnight or additional gasoline expenses. Trip insurance is definitely a life-saver if the unforeseen happens. Ask your host for details.
• Find a copy of your local Carolina Beach visitors guide magazine upon checking in. If your rental doesn't have one, you can find them at local shops and visitor centers. In addition to great local information, visitors guides contain offers and deals for nearby accommodations, restaurants and tours.

Planning and choosing a perfect Carolina Beach rental home:

• To start, have your group decide on date ranges and a max budget.
• Determine how many bedrooms and what type of bedroom configuration your family needs. New! Close to Beach w Hot Tub! has 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms.
• Specific descriptions of bedrooms and bed counts & types is commonly available on booking pages. If they are not listed, email or call the property management company before reserving the home. Note that most properties list the maximum guest capacity, which often includes sofa beds and bunks. You will need to work out what configuration is optimal for your group.
• If there's a certain Carolina Beach attraction you are enamored with, keep an eye out for homes that are either near by, or those that cater especially to your desires.
• Appropriate accessibility amenities can make or ruin a vacation for those with limited mobility. Confirm all necessary amenities are included before reserving a rental
• Are you bringing the family pet? Although a number of vacation homes allow pets or animals, guidelines and costs vary per property. Type of pet, size and breeds may be limited. Make sure to ask before booking, and study your agreement! Additional fees or might be applied to your agreement.

More considerations for your visit:

• Add the owner's information to your smartphone. Print and take a copy of check in/check out procedures.
• To ensure that no damages are attributed to your stay, record any problem areas when you arrive. E-mail the rental manager immediately to report any pre-existing damages. If there is a dispute about who is responsible, having the recorded problems and contact attempts will be helpful.
• Ask questions. You may want instructions for a fireplace, intercom or washer/dryer. Contact your host. They are there to help! A brief telephone call can prevent a lot of problems.
• Respecting quiet hours and parking rules can make a stay more pleasurable. Be a good neighbor. You'll enhance your chance to make local friends, and resident neighbors can be an excellent source for finding the best local scenic spots.
• Don't forget to... Ask a local! Residents can frequently help you find the best spots in town. Who better to ask where to spend a rainy day, have a great night out, or the best spots for shopping?
• Ensure you protect the property owner (and your stuff!) by locking and securing the home while you are out, just like you would back home.
• Upon check-out, complete a final walk-through to make sure you haven't forget any personal items. Check closets, dressers, garages, and bathrooms for hidden treasure. Remove everything from the refrigerator and take any leftovers home.
• Go through the rental one final time and look for damage. We suggest inspecting the property with the host whenever possible. If the manager isn't available, take video and pictures of the rental to record its condition.
• Did your group have a fantastic stay? Many rental websites make it easy for clients to provide comments. If your rental and/or property manager was great, they would love to hear it. If anything was out of order and they failed to fix it reasonably, or if the vacation rental wasn't as described, you'll want to make a note as part of your comments.
